Dear Islamic sisters! The Holy Rasool صَلَّى اللهُ تَعَالٰى عَلَيْهِ وَاٰلِهٖ وَسَلَّم loves us immensely. He صَلَّى اللهُ تَعَالٰى عَلَيْهِ وَاٰلِهٖ وَسَلَّم presents pleas and supplicates for the forgiveness of his sinful Ummah in the court of Allah Almighty at all times. Undoubtedly, he صَلَّى اللهُ تَعَالٰى عَلَيْهِ وَاٰلِهٖ وَسَلَّم has innumerable favours upon us. How is it possible for us to thank him? All we can do is to send Salat and Salaam in his blessed court, i.e. supplicate for mercy to be showered upon him. It is like beggars supplicating for those who are generous.

O devotees of Rasool! Another great benefit of reciting Salat upon the Noble Rasool صَلَّى اللهُ تَعَالٰى عَلَيْهِ وَاٰلِهٖ وَسَلَّم is also that one will attain the blessed intercession of the Holy Rasool صَلَّى اللهُ تَعَالٰى عَلَيْهِ وَاٰلِهٖ وَسَلَّم by its virtue on the Day of Judgement.

Umm-ul-Mu’mineen, Sayyidatuna ‘Aaishah Siddiqah رَضِیَ اللهُ تَعَالٰی عَنْهَا narrates that the Holy Rasoolصَلَّى اللهُ تَعَالٰى عَلَيْهِ وَاٰلِهٖ وَسَلَّم stated:‘مَنْ صَلّٰی عَلَیَّ یَوْمَ الْجُمُعَۃِ  کَانَتْ شَفَاعَۃٌ لَّہٗ عِنْدِیْ یَوْمَ الْقِیَامَۃ’ i.e. the one who recites Salat upon me on the day of Friday, it will be on my mercy to intercede for him on the Day of Judgement. (Kanz-ul-‘Ummal, vol. 1, pp. 255, Hadees 2236)

Dear Islamic sisters! Regarding the Day of Judgement, it is stated in part 29, Surah Al-Ma’aarij, Ayah no. 4:

كَانَ مِقْدَارُهٗ خَمْسِیْنَ اَلْفَ سَنَةٍۚ(۴)

Translation from Kanz-ul-Iman: That punishment will befall the disbelievers on a day; the duration of which is fifty thousand years (according to worldly calculation of time).

That day, sun will be like blazing fire. Earth will be made of blazing copper. Everyone will be drenched in their own sweat. Tongues will dry out due to the intensity of thirst. Everyone will be just bothered about themselves only. In such difficult times, there will be no one to look after you.
